Losing

Hi all! I need help ! At least a word or two of encouragement. Max is 4 months old tomorrow. I can not get him to stop biting!
He also walks around the yard in a clockwise circle. I will go and re- direct him and he will play but with constantly
Biting! He has fits getting him to walk on a leash ( growls, turns all red 3 stoogesish ) and potty training isn't going that great either.
He will bark
If he is in his crate and has to go, but if he is bouncing around the house he won't.
He will come when called, if he feels like it. If he isn't getting his way he will throw a tantrum ! He is not motovated by food AT ALL.
I have an appointment to send him to boarding school,
I've never done that before- I've never had to. I haven't had a bully since I was a teenager so I can't
Remember if this is normal or if I am doing something wrong. Thank you all for any help !

    Colleen.... Your details are not quite detailed enough, but from what you describe he is not getting enough attention and control.... he should never be crated long, only at night to give you rest time and he needs be tired when he goes down...  If you don't have the time and ability to help him grow up the I suggest you find a home that can before he gets out of hand... At 4 months he will be "unruly" and will require attention and discipline ..... But you have to be in charge. It takes a lot of effort and patience to raise a Bullie from 8 weeks to 8 months, it''s the toughest time.... It will pass but you must have the fortitude to prevail... Is there anyone nearby who can help.??... Sending him away is just growing/ delaying a disaster... If you PM me your phone number I can call and we can talk... I know you love him and want everything to work out.

    And another plus is that you are getting a good daily workout... Please try and remember to always do it with love and humor... I know it is easier to do it with anger and frustration, but if you try the other you will enjoy it and the result more... Remember you are just trying to teach him who is boss... And truthfully he is dying to know that you are actually the boss.. Alleviates the responsibility for him to be in charge... Soon he will be so loving and responsive.. You'll be totally glad
